Description

with an export/import similar to the pages export/import you can have the possibility to synchronize two instances.

While the data export handles file records which are used, it is not possible to export and import files which are not used yet.

The export/import should handle more than only the files. As each file is represented by a sys_file record which can contain more info than just the filename these records should be transfered too (with the option to force the same uid on the target installation as the uid is/should be used in any file referencing).

Hey Bernd.
Thanks for your suggestion. I understand you want to use ext:impexp to synchronize FAL files between systems. However, with the current state of the impexp extension, this would result in really high efforts to achieve this, the extension has much much bigger issues that need to be resolved to be allow abusing it for file synchronization.
For now, please consider using different alternatives to sync files between systems, for instance low level system jobs like rsync and the like, combined with a scheduler fal index run afterwards.
Since ext:impexp will probably not be able to do this for a while, I'll close the issue as 'rejected' for now.
